What do we call the equivalent of a subreddit?
Sublemmy doesn’t quite roll off of the tongue as nicely.
Communities - they’re abbreviated to /c/ and that seems a pretty consistent term.
The “official” word is “community”, which you can see in various parts of the UI.
Magazine!
On Mbin or Kbin, sure, but not Lemmy
The answer is in the title. Thank you.
We call them “communities”, though I’ve been saying “munis” for short.
Kbin and Kbin call them “magazines”.
Kbin and Kbin
This sounds like a lawfirm name you’d see advertised on TV.
“Did your post get unjustly deleted? Unfair moderator actions? Admins getting you down? Call Kbin and Kbin for a free consultation TODAY!”
Mbin got autocowronged, haha
Arrested Development S4E5 “A New Start”
Moonies
I just discovered my neighbor is a moonie, and proudly described himself as such.
I was surprised as I thought it was a derogatory term for them.
though I’ve been saying “munis” for short.
“comms” is my go-to.
Apparently, in the underlying ActivityPub protocol, they’re called “groups”.
Usenet bridge when, smart people? (The cost of doing it properly might well be prohibitive though.)

I’ve always thought we should call then “dens” (in honor of lemmings) or something like “gigs” or “venues” (in honor of Lemmy), but I stick with “communities.”
Dens is good
They are called communities or coms for short on Lemmy, and they’re magazines or mags on Mbin/Kbin.
Burrows, since they’re what lemmings live in.
Coms
Commies
a sub
I usually call them boards when I can’t remember the name “community”. There are lots of kinds of community. An instance might well be a community if you are browsing local. Board is shorter and my brain wants to use that word anyway.
LOL

Sublemmy. Plural sublemmies.
Honestly I think we can just call them “subs” like we did on Reddit. “Sublemmy” sounds clunky but sub still works and we all know what it means.
